Why does one say saga and one doesn't? That saga one is cheaper. I might just go to the dealership because just for those 2 it comes out to $18 and change mostly due to the price for just shipping and handling.

dude...jack the car up....take off the wheels to expose ur hub.....turn ur steering wheel so that u can get behind the hub....use a rubber mallet to hammer the new stud in.....its not that hard......

u dont need to take off the caliper or rotor?

 

[BPAccord]

Remove Brake Caliper and rotors

Now u should be able to get access to behind the wheel hub.....if u havent gotten the old stripped stud out...now u can do so....insert the new one...and u can use a rubber mallet to handle it in....remember if u having trouble gettin behind the hub....u can turn ur steering wheel to turn the hub outwards so u can get behind it.....

ive done this on mah 240..but the rear hubs dont turn so u can imagine how hard that was....hope this helps
